HAYA

☝Haya is as significant for men as it is for women.

The term Haya is often used to describe attributes such as modesty, chastity, shyness, humility, shame, honor, dignity, integrity and self-respect.

Every believer must train themselves to live in the fundamental state of Haya i.e. to remain modest and choose for themselves aloofness from temptations.

Modesty in dressing is just one element of being in the state of Haya.

Haya is the drive that motivates a believer and at every step of their lives provides them with the opportunity to please Allah by shying away from bad conduct, feeling embarrassed, uncomfortable and awkward in performing or partnering indecent acts.

Thus, Haya shapes up the character and personality of a believer with all that is good.

As Prophet Muhammad (sallalahu alaihi wasallam) is recorded to have said:

“Haya does not bring anything except good.”

There could be many reasons why a lot of men these days try to aloof their selves from being known as a person with great Haya.

1) The society has painted a person with great morals, modesty and shyness as a “sissy”! No, man likes to be called soft, sensitive or weak.

2) Shyness and modesty are often considered to be a trait of an introvert person. It is pictured as a sign of weakness.

3) Who care about Haya these days anyways? Since, we don’t even mind taking our children to watch Bollywood movies with titles such as ‘Kameenay’(this is a bollywood movie)

4)A person with good morals, modesty, chastity and shyness is considered to be ‘boring’ and ‘not a fun company’.

We must understand that Islam is not here to create difficulties for us, but it is a divine gift to humans from their Creator, to help us live our temporary lives in the best possible manner.

Also, we must realize that Islam is perfect, its teachings are perfect and so whatever it gives us, we should take it happily.

How can a Muslim (the one who submits his will to God) perform an act of sin comfortably, without feeling any guilt, shame or embarrassment?

It is the sense of Haya which serves as a self-accountability mechanism for every believing man or woman.

Action Plan:✊

We need to realize the fact that our thinking affects our attitudes; our attitudes shape up behaviors and our behaviors guide our actions, which in turn forms our personalities over a period of time.

If we do not change our thinking regarding the importance of Haya in our lives today, tomorrow we should not expect our children to be highly modest and having a strong sense of Haya in them.

Being Muslims, we should strive to become the epitome of Haya, so that others in our society can follow us as role models and improve their lives too.

It is highly recommended to  list down the strengths & weaknesses in your personality.

Let’s not just plan as always to improve our selves, let’s act for a change.
